Clean aid or dirty aid? The environmentalization of Czech foreign aid
Original language description
The contribution of foreign aid to environmentally sensitive development has not been the subject of intense research, despite the fact that foreign aid is a significant source of foreign exchange for a number of developing countries. Foreign aid can be classified, based on its likely environmental effects, as clean, dirty or neutral aid. This study assesses the environmental outcomes of Czech foreign aid projects between 2000 and 2015. Czech foreign aid experienced a significant decline in dirty foreign aid projects and a growth in the proportion of clean projects. The process of environmentalization of Czech foreign aid had its internal dynamic; these developments had been tested in the context of key institutional and policy interventions in the Czech foreign aid system. The regression analysis revealed some evidence of an association between changes in the Czech foreign aid system and the environmentalization of aid. Thus, the study contributes to the knowledge concerning the processes of environmentalization of foreign aid, which can positively assist sustainable development efforts in developing countries.
